Hi Guys, haven't been here in a while but thought I'd update you all on this subject - Irish locations - and ask a question.

As mentioned elsewhere on the Board, DYS/FOD is showing in Dublin this evening at the IFI with Prof. Frayling in attendance. Regrettably, I cannot be there. However, in the blurb issued by the IFI they referred to the fact that John Boorman (who lives in Co. Wicklow) had assisted Leone in finding suitable locations in Wicklow for the flashback sequences. Now, as most of you will have seen on the youtube link posted above, these locations are not in Co. Wicklow but in Co. Dublin and Dublin City. I emailed the IFI last week about this and they have come back to me today with the news that they queried the matter this afternoon with both the Prof. and John Boorman and "they say that they definitely used Wicklow in the flashback sequences". Now, no more than NYC can be in LA, Howth Castle in Dublin cannot be in Wicklow. I have emailed them back with a request to ask them:

1. What scenes were shot in Wicklow?2. Where in Wicklow were they shot?

Now, this raises the possibility (probability?) that scenes WERE shot in Wicklow but were not used in the final cut. If so, did these scenes expand on/clarify the exact relationship between the three that has raised some disagreement here over the years?
